- [Congenital Anomalies of the Kidney and Urinary Tract (CAKUT)](): Structural abnormalities that can lead to impaired renal function.
- [Neonatal Hypernatremia](): An electrolyte imbalance often caused by inadequate breastfeeding or dehydration.
- [Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD)](): A genetic disorder leading to cyst formation and kidney dysfunction.
